Re: need help about extra protocol pludgin

Thanks for the response but I was meaning to use the bluetooth connection as I don't want to broadcast quite so widely & that approach eats the battery.

Re: Gtalk Problem

Might be worth checking if it works with Pidgin on your N900. might be a corrupt install. If a reboot and battery pull doesn't sort it then try a reinstall.

Re: Hotmail on N900

The outgoing connection I have (and working) is 587 rather than 25. Do you need to use connection specific SMTP servers?
